SEEKING

ABOUT

I was born a music fan and started listening to Pink Floyd while still in a crib. Since then my fascination with music has only grown with me. It's been a personal mission to be able to emulate the very things that have given me goosebumps via sounds waves to the ear... and who knows where it goes from there... But the experience is now one I wish to create and share with others.

I am and always will be a music student and enthusiast. Though I've studied it all my life, I've rarely collaborated with others. Coming to Bandmix is a step I've take toward my goal of changing that. I'd love to create new sounds with your ideas, even while focusing on covers, which is what I may be most comfortable with at first. But only at first!
